Geometry and topology of data sets
Jacek Brodzki
(Southampton University)
Abstract
Coarse geometry provides a very useful organising point of view on the study
of geometry and analysis of discrete metric spaces, and has been very
successful in the context of geometric group theory and its applications. On
the other hand, the work of Carlsson, Ghrist and others on persistent
homology has paved the way for applications of topological methods to the
study of broadly understood data sets. This talk will provide an
introduction to this fascinating topic and will give an overview of possible
interactions between the two.
